IWAE!

For those of us just tuning in, Toei announced that the adventures of Kamen Rider Zi-O would be continuing thanks to a brand new V-Cinema project that’s forthcoming titled Kamen Rider Zi-O Next Time: Geiz Majesty. The initial trailer teased a new power-up for the freedom fighter of 2068 called Geiz Majesty and we now have our first look at this form thanks to a reveal from the toei_rider_ZIO official Twitter account late last night.

In addition to Geiz Majesty, another surprise comes from a new Another Rider: Another Diend joining the fight!

The story context for these two still remains to be seen, but if you wish to join in on the speculation be sure to hit the forums after the Rising Jump.

Ruling over space & time is great and all, but if you have to walk everywhere it’s certainly less fun right? Cue the Ridestriker! Hailing from 2068, the Ridestriker is the personal Rider Machine of both Kamen Rider’s Zi-O & Geiz. Each has their own Ridestriker, and though they came and went infrequently in series (appearing in only 5 episodes), what’s a Rider without their Machine?

The S.H. Figuarts Ridestriker is an absolutely solid Rider Machine, and honestly it’s hard to mess one up in this line. Where this release shines is with the included accessories. Tamashii Nations has seen fit to not only bring us this versatile machine, but also to load it down with the signature weapons of the series two main protagonists. Thus filling the Zikan Girade & the Zikan Zax sized holes in many collections.  The Girade & Ax are included in both forms and we even get 5 new hands for each rider, as well as a couple optional parts to display the Ridestriker itself. This is a set that absolutely compliments any Zi-O Figuarts Collection.

“Indeed the power of Kamen Rider Woz, is in the hands of Woz.”

Woz as we first knew him was the mysterious servant to the future demon king Sougo Tokiwa, Oma Zi-O. As the series progressed he became both friend and real ally, but when Zi-O refused his path to the overlords’ future, a divergent timeline came into being. And with it came a divergent Woz, Another Woz, White Woz! In the present day, White Woz wielded the futuring power of Kamen Rider Woz! That is until the original Black Woz, with the aid of the Time Jackers, stole this power for his own. Two Woz’s, One Rider! “Woz! WOZ!!”

Kamen Rider Woz is quite the surprise for me. Initially it was a release I was underwhelmed to be getting, in hand he’s actually wonderful. Building upon the solid engineering of the Zi-O/Geiz mold, Woz is a fantastic figure. With all the hallmarks of the mold’s articulation, with improved neck movement and shoulder pad design, Woz can pose with the best. The lavish paint apps and intricate sculpt also really make this release pop. But really it’s the inclusion of Woz’s signature weapon, the Zekan Despear that sets him apart. Able to change between it’s 3 modes, the Despear is a much needed accessory where Zi-O & Geiz did not include their weapons.

Check out our 70+ image gallery of S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Woz and read through the full review of the figure by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post.

RIDER TIME

This past weekend marked the final episode of Kamen Rider Zi-O but Toei isn’t done with the King of Time quite yet! Announced earlier last week ahead of the last episode was a V-Cinema movie titled Kamen Rider Zi-O: Next Time Geiz Majesty which appears to take place following the end of the series.

A trailer for the V-Cinema’s since been released, and the trailer revealed that Geiz will be acquiring a new Ride Watch. At the moment, we don’t know how Bandai intends to release the DX Geiz Majesty Ride Watch but we can assume that it will no doubt be a P-Bandai release.

Do note that the trailer does contain spoilers for the final episode of Kamen Rider Zi-O. So if you aren’t caught up yet, hit the link at your own risk!
